- She has publicly defended Stefon Diggs, including a since-deleted post reported by TMZ asserting the accuser never told her she was touched.
- Diggs faces a felony strangulation charge and a misdemeanor assault charge stemming from a Dec. 2 incident at his Massachusetts home, with arraignment set for Jan. 23 in Dedham District Court.
- Attorney David Meier says the allegations are unsubstantiated and ties them to an employee-employer financial dispute, insisting the claimed conduct did not occur.
- The New England Patriots say Diggs denies the accusations, the team supports him and will cooperate with authorities and the NFL, while Diggs told reporters he will not discuss the open case.
